Chapter 478 Is the Qiao family going to be in trouble?



As soon as Xu left, Qiao Xin ordered Zhang Jun to send in all the information that had been gathered recently!

The caravans that Qiao Xin sent to various places in recent years are not just about doing business locally.

The people who opened shops and stayed there not only had the responsibility of making money, but also recorded every major event happening in different places in a special way every day. They would then take them out with the caravan from the Qiao family, and eventually they would all end up in the hands of Qiao Xin.

Qiao Xin never looked down on businessmen, let alone belittled them. All businessmen who can make money have fought their way out of a group of similar people. Without some skills, you will not survive in this world where the rule of man is more important than the rule of law.

Merchants are the bridge for the flow of goods in peacetime and the spies who charge into battle in times of war.

Over the years, even the three sons didn't know how many business bases Qiao Xin had established in private and how many spies and business geniuses she had trained.

Qiao Xin, a criminal slave of Nanliang, would select a group of them every year. Some of these people were exposed, while others ended up in an unknown place.

As for where she went, I'm afraid only Qiao Xin herself knows.

As for Nanny Qin and Manager Cao, they only knew one side of the story. When Qiao Xin went on a long trip, she would sometimes take Nanny Qin with her, sometimes Zhang Jun and Shunzi with her, and sometimes she would just leave a message and disappear for a few days alone.

Nowadays, the commercial routes throughout Nanliang, Dongyi and Xiling can basically be connected. Qiao Xin is sitting in Laohu Town and can still know the changes in major events in the world!

Qiao Xin flipped through the information in her hand, her expression calm, and she said indifferently: "Send a message to Shi Jingmo, asking him to protect himself, find an excuse to go on a business trip, and stay away from the palace for a few months. Zhu Zhen is going to make a big move!

The reign of Emperor Nanliang is almost over. Zhu Zhen's methods have become increasingly bloody and frequent recently, and it is clear that he is running out of patience.

Given Zhu Zhen's disgust for aristocratic families, if a palace coup occurs, there will probably be a river of blood!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jun immediately went down to make arrangements!

No wonder the noble families began to travel back and forth to Dajing. The struggle between the eunuchs and court officials in the Southern Liang Dynasty had already reached a fever pitch, and a large number of innocent people were dragged into it and lost their lives every day!

After the butcher Zhu Zhen broke up with the noble families of Yizhou, he went all out in killing people in Nanliang. He used to be more cautious and only killed court officials, but now even the princes and princesses have become his victims. Such a person is now the Grand Marshal of the Nanliang Army, holding most of the military power in Nanliang.

No matter how many private soldiers a noble family has, can they be more numerous than the army of a country?

They now have only two choices: either escape or go along with the corrupt officials!

Most of the aristocratic families eventually chose the Dongyi. Compared with the ambitious Emperor Wu, who had no good feelings towards the aristocratic families, the Dongyi, who had a empress dowager in power and a weak emperor, made them feel that they could control them more easily!

But even if only a small number of people from Dajing returned, it would still be a factor causing changes in all aspects of the capital.

Look, some people are eyeing her, a peasant girl who has just come ashore, and the Qiao family's business with a shallow foundation!

Sure enough, in the following days, there were more and more small actions against the Qiao family. First, someone caused trouble at Yu Mancang, and then there were problems at the Rouge Shop.

Some people bought her skin care products and ended up with rotten faces!

Some people also began to direct their criticism towards Qingyang Academy, accusing the Qiao family of openly training talents for the court but secretly forming cliques for personal gain and controlling power in various parts of the court.

Because among the students admitted in recent years, many of them either graduated from Qingyang Academy, or had eaten free wontons at Qiao Erlang’s wonton stall, or benefited a lot from the library.

There are even shameless people who say that the Qiao family did so many good things with ulterior motives, and that they were just trying to win people's hearts and pave the way for the Eighth Prince!

The Eighth Prince, who had climbed mountains and waded through water in Western Shu, felt deeply wronged. He had already hidden in the deep mountains and forests, so which bastard wouldn't let him go?

Ever since he read the "Travels to Famous Mountains" and "Notes on the Classic of Waterways" in the Qiao family's library, his greatest wish in life was to be a knight who traveled around the mountains and rivers, visited strange places, and explored the mysteries of nature.

What does the intrigue in the court have to do with him? He has already informed his father about it and used the dividends given by Yu Mancang as travel expenses, which is enough for him to eat and drink for the rest of his life!

He is not like his second brother, who is so foolish that he thinks he can win the competition with the crown prince with the support of the noble family. He does not know that this is a violation of his father's taboo!

"Your Highness, are you okay?" The captain of the guard asked when he saw his master sneezing several times.

"It's okay, it's okay, let's keep going. I heard from the old lady that there are black and white pandas in Wolong Mountain in Western Shu. They are so cute and adorable. Let's go and see what they really look like!"

The porcelain piggy bank launched by Qiao Xin in Yumancang is in the shape of a panda. The thing is chubby and round, and captured the boy's heart at first sight.

Later, unable to resist his pleading, Mrs. Qiao asked the embroiderer to make a panda doll for her, which made Qiao Erlang extremely jealous.

In the end, the old lady had to make one for herself before the boy gave him a little bit of a good look...

The eighth prince shook his head, withdrew his thoughts, and no longer thought about the past. Now that he had come out of that vortex, there was no need to look back.

Unfortunately, he doesn't know that there are many things in this world that are beyond one's control.

Back in the capital, evil spirits targeting the Qiao family emerged one after another, as if Qiao Xin had become the culprit that brought disaster to the country and the people overnight.

But the Qiao family went to court as usual and went to work as usual.

But Qiao Xin’s birthday party seemed deserted.

Xu almost died of anger!

Originally, seventy or eighty tables were prepared for the banquet, but now there were only thirty tables of people sitting there. Some of them were the head of the village, the head of the village, the owners of major shops, and people who were on good terms with Laohu Town and Yuncheng.

On the aristocratic side, only the Guan, Xu, and Wang families, as well as the Fan and Pei families, sent representatives! Dean Liang of Qingyang Academy brought many teachers to congratulate!

What surprised Qiao Xin was that Huan Wen and Dingbian Hou and his son also came to visit, and that kid Liu Heng also showed up to join in the fun!

Qiao Erlang looked at him sitting there, wearing a bright red suit, holding a fan to show off in the middle of winter. He had every reason to suspect that this guy had come to laugh at him!

After hearing Nanny Qin's report, Qiao Xin was a little surprised. There were far more people than she had imagined.

Not all the efforts made by the Qiao family over the years have been in vain!

Seeing that it was already noon, it was estimated that no one would come, so Qiao Xin said to the aggrieved Xu: "Eldest wife, stop crying and start the meal. Don't waste the extra food, send it to the charity hall and improve the children's meals!"

Xu sniffed and nodded aggrievedly!

Before she even left the house, Butler Yu ran in excitedly: "Madam, His Majesty, His Majesty, His Majesty, His Majesty, His Majesty, and His Majesty are all here!"
